[25].Surah Al-Furqan [The Criterion] : Ayat 20

২০. আপনার পূর্বে যত রসূল প্রেরণ করেছি, তারা সবাই খাদ্য গ্রহণ করত এবং হাটে-বাজারে চলাফেরা করত। আমি তোমাদের এককে অপরের জন্যে পরীক্ষাস্বরূপ করেছি। দেখি, তোমরা সবর কর কিনা। আপনার পালনকর্তা সব কিছু দেখেন।

Ayat 20. And Allah never sent before you (O Muhammad  SAWW (PBUH) any of the Messengers but verily, they ate food and walked in the markets. And Allah have made some of you as a trial for others: will you have patience? And your Lord is Ever All-Seer (of everything).

 

[Tafseer] of Ayat 20. And the messengers whom Allah sent before thee were all (men) who ate food and walked through the streets: Allah have made some of you as a trial for others: will ye have patience? for Allah is One Who sees (all things). In Allah's universal Plan, each unit or thing serves a purpose. If some are rich, the poor should not envy them: it may be that the rich man's proximity is itself a trial of their value. If some are poor, the righteous rich should not despise or neglect them; it may be that their coming within their sight is a trial for the real feeling of charity or brotherly love in the rich. If A is bad-tempered or persecutes or ill-uses B, it may be an opportunity for B to show his patience or humility or his faith in the ultimate prevalence of justice and truth. Whatever our experiences with other human beings may be, we must make them subserve the ends of our spiritual improvement and perhaps theirs too.
